ATLANTA – The Massey Ferguson 8280 plowed through the world plowing record by plowing 620.899 acres of French fields in 24 hours...At 23.056 acres per hour the 387-horsepower Massey Ferguson 8280 outdid the previous record holder, a 425-horsepower Case IH Quadrac, by nearly 4 acres per hour...The 8280 plowed faster and even a little deeper than the previous record holder and did so with less horsepower, said Rene Boivin, general marketing manager of the Massey Ferguson 8200 series....Much of the credit for the record-breaking run goes to an outstanding engine and transmission, according to Massey Ferguson. The key to success was the integrated control system that made it possible for the operator to utilize every available horsepower to its maximum potential.
